Centuries of samurai history are on display, and we’ll teach you what to look for in appreciating the beauty of a Japanese sword.
If you want to see Japanese swords and armor, and you don’t happen to have a time machine, usually you’ll need to head to a museum.
However, we recently came across an astounding collection of katana not in any museum, gallery, or other dedicated cultural facility, but inside a hotel.
Granted, the Hotel Tado Onsen, in the Mie Prefecture town of Kuwana, is a particularly nice hotel, enough so to earn three Michelin guide stars.
But what really captured our attention are the stunning racks of katana, tachi, and other beautiful blades.
